Hosea 2:16-20

16And it will come about on that day,” declares the Lord, “That you will call Me 12my husband And no longer call Me my 3Baal.17For 4I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth, So that they will no longer be 5mentioned by their names.18On that day I will also make a covenant for them With the 6animals of the field, The birds of the sky, And the crawling things of the ground. And I will 78eliminate the bow, the sword, and war from the land, And will let them 9lie down in safety.19I will 10betroth you to Me forever; Yes, I will betroth you to Me in 11righteousness and in justice, In favor and in compassion,20And I will betroth you to Me in faithfulness. Then you will 12know the Lord.
